#2 If the 2nd Horowitz report is like the 1st Horowitz report, it will be somewhat tepid and vanilla. We will have to wait until it is released. Durham has opened a criminal investigation(s), the results of which will be coming later.

Reports by WAPO, Lisa Page and the House Intelligence committee are said to be efforts to get out in front of the Horowitz FISA abuse report. Horowitz has little power to do anything but report, recommend and refer.

Barr, early on said Trump was being spied upon. Later, in a speech before the Federalist Society , said:

"Immediately after President Trump won election, opponents inaugurated what they called “The Resistance,” and they rallied around an explicit strategy of using every tool and maneuver to sabotage the functioning of the Executive Branch and his Administration. Now, “resistance” is the language used to describe insurgency against rule imposed by an occupying military power. It obviously connotes -- It obviously connotes that the government is not legitimate. This is a very dangerous -- and indeed incendiary -- notion to import into the politics of a democratic republic. What it means is that, instead of viewing themselves as the “loyal opposition,” as opposing parties have done in this country for over 200 years, they essentially see themselves as engaged in a war to cripple, by any means necessary, a duly elected government."

Durham, Barr, the courts and the people will have the final word.
